11 June 2025
This report—the eleventh in our ongoing series—documents sustained violations of the International Court of Justice’s binding orders to protect the Rohingya, issued as part of The Gambia’s genocide case against Myanmar. Covering the period 1 January – 23 May 2025, it aligns with Myanmar’s most recent reporting deadline under the ICJ’s provisional measures.
